Taliban Urge Trump to Withdraw US Troops from Afghanistan

Kabul, Aug 15 (Prensa Latina) The AfghanTaliban on Tuesday have urged the United States to withdraw all its troops from Afghanistan as a condition to establish peace talks with the government.

In the open, long and rambling note, signed by Afghan Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid, the insurgents said Donald Trump has recognized the mistakes of his predecessors by seeking a review of the US strategy for Afghanistan.

Members of Congress and warmongering generals in Afghanistan are putting pressure on you to extend the war, since they are seeking to preserve their military privileges,' he continued,' but you must act responsibly because the fate of many US people and Afghans is closely tied to this matter.

A withdrawal of the United States from Afghanistan would remove US troops from danger and end an inherited war (in Afghanistan), the note said.

Last June, the insurgents leader, Mullah Hebatullah Ajundzada, said US occupation was the main obstacle on the road to peace, and rejected US plans to increase its military troops in this region.

The Taliban and the government held an official meeting in July 2015, but such a process was called off following the death of the movement's founder, Mullah Omar, and since then the formation has been refusing to talk.

They are currently controlling 40 percent of the territory and deploying a wave of violence intensifying the instability setting and challenging the government's ability to effectively exercise its authority.

Some experts say that terror attacks on Afghanistan have been unstoppable, where US troops have guaranteed their military presence in this nation for over 15 years, with alleged purposes of fighting terrorism.

Following the 2001 US military intervention, supported by NATO allies, the Pentagon has shown no results in the highly publicized anti-terrorist strategy.
